New Delhi: Former Indian batsman Virendra Sehwag has always made news with his funny and sarcastic tweets; and on the occasion of Father's Day yesterday, the swashbuckling batsman offered something similar.

He retweeted a fan who wished him Father's Day, recollecting the memories of the interview where Sehwag shared with Shahrukh Khan, an interesting sequence of dialogue between him and former Pakistani pacer Shoaib Akhtar during one of the thrilling India vs. Pakistan matches.

According to Sehwag, Shoaib Akhtar was continuously trying to test his patience by asking him to hook his bouncer. To which Sehwag replied, “Your father is batting on the opposite end. Ask him, he will hook”.

And to everyone’s surprise, Sachin did the same. He sent the ball over the boundary and this gave Sehwag a chance to tease Shoaib Akhtar. He said, “Beta beta hota hai, baap baap hota hai”. (Son is son, father is father).
